All you have to do is make sure that the ceiling or wall is strong enough and follow the instructions for the specific model.

Most fireplaces made of ethanol that are wall-mounted include the necessary hardware to install them as a flat screen TV or recess into the wall. You'll need to locate the studs, and then install the brackets and extensions, but it shouldn't take more than an hour for an expert to do this.

There is also the option of manual or automatic bioethanol burners. The automated burner keeps the fuel from the flames so it can burn for longer without the danger of overheating or consuming. A manual burner operates similarly to a traditional fireplace, however you'll require matches or lighters to light the flames.

It's important to remember when choosing a bio-ethanol burner, the burner must be covered with non-combustible material. This will ensure that nothing gets in contact with the burning fuel. If you don't cover your burner properly, it could cause the fire to overheat. This could cause damage to the fireplace.

Designs and styles

There are many different styles and designs that bio-ethanol fireplaces can be found in.

Each type comes with the same advantages regardless of design that is a genuine flame atmosphere without harmful fumes or smoke.

Ethanol fires can be mounted on the wall or freestanding. Freestanding models are more mobile and can be moved around the room in any direction you like. Wall-mounted models are anchored to the walls and require special mounting gear. They must also comply with certain distances between flammable materials and the unit.

The fire itself originates from the burner pan, which is situated on the bottom of the fireplace. Fuel is poured into this pan, and the fire is ignited using an extended lighter. It takes around 15 minutes for the flames to reach their maximum potential. Once the fire is lit you can relax and enjoy the warm ambience of your home.

Some ethanol fire places even offer heating settings that can be adjusted. This lets you adjust the amount of heat that the fireplace produces.

A further benefit of ethanol fires is that it is no need for chimneys or flues. This makes them a great alternative for new homes or older homes without traditional chimney breasts or fireplaces. Furthermore, a bio-ethanol fire place does not produce any gas or ash, which can be dangerous for those suffering from respiratory issues.

No Flu

The most significant benefit of bioethanol over traditional natural gas or wood fires is the fact that they don't require a chimney in order to function. This means that there is no risk of chimney fires that can result from the build-up of tar, or an obstruction in the flue.

A bio ethanol fireplace also doesn't create a lot of particles that could harm the air quality, which is great news for those who suffer from allergies or asthma. The fire does not produce smoke, therefore it does not create a unpleasant odor in the room.

As opposed to a wood-burning fireplace bio ethanol fires don't lose heat through the chimney, so it can produce an incredible amount of heat for its size. This allows you to keep your furniture near the flame without having to worry about it catching on fire which could be hazardous.

A burner that is either manual or automated is a different aspect to consider. A manual burner requires you to light the fuel from the reservoir. A burner that is automated will automatically light your fire once the tank is empty.

When you're done using your bio ethanol fireplace, it is important to let the flames completely burn out and wait until the burner is cool before refilling. If you don't, the ethanol might evaporate and you'll have to start over.

Most manufacturers recommend that you allow at least 45 minutes between refilling your fire so you have enough time to safely remove the flames and ensure that all materials that are flammable are kept away from the fire. In addition, it's best to store any leftover fuel with ethanol out of reach of children and pets, to avoid any accidents from happening.

Easy maintenance

Ethanol fireplaces work by pouring bio ethanol fuel into the burner and lighting it. As the fuel burns, it produces the appearance of a flame and the heat can be controlled with an adjustable slider (not Stove all designs include this feature). By altering the amount of oxygen is fed to the fire you can alter how fast the fuel burns and also how high the flame burns.

The soot produced by the fuel burning is easily removed using a an easy, clean cloth. The only other thing to do is to ensure that the burner is full of the correct fuel and to ensure it's not in contact with flammable materials or objects.

This allows you to be very flexible in designing your home, and where you want to sit and enjoy the warmth of your fireplace. You can even choose an open-air model that is portable.

Wall-mounted bioethanol fireplaces are simple to set up and some models let you rotate the unit by 180 degrees, allowing you to the flame and heat to be directed into the desired part of the room. Some models come with a remote control that allows you to control the fireplace from your couch.

To maximize versatility, a lot of the 'plug and play' wall-mounted bioethanol fireplaces are equipped with brackets that allow you to attach them to a flat or sloping ceiling. Installing the fireplace wherever you like is possible, however, you'll still be able to use the remote control to turn it off and adjust the flame's height as well as adjust the temperature.

When you are not using your ethanol fire ensure that it is off and is away from any flammable substances or other equipment. Don't pour any more fuel into the burner until it is at temperatures that are at or near the level of ambient temperature. Be cautious when handling it since it is very hot.
